Profile:
A tall and well built fast medium bowler, Sekhar at his peak in the
early 80s, was probably the fastest bowler in the country. But not
having the benefit of a really good coach, his line and length could
be erratic. He captured nine wickets in an innings against Kerala in
the Ranji Trophy in 1982-83 and this, followed by some good
performances in the Duleep Trophy brought him into national
reckoning. Flown as a replacement for the injured Madan Lal, Sekhar
played two Tests in Pakistan in 1982-83. He bowled with some hostility
but had little luck and was, rather harshly, not considered for any
more Tests. He played in a few one day internationals, the last
against England in 1985 and briefly came back into the reckoning for
the tour of West Indies in 1989 when he was called to attend the camp
at Madras. By now however he had joined the MRF Pace Foundation, where
he has been chief coach for several years. He is currently the South
Zone representative on the selection committee.(Partab Ramchand)
